Impeccably Designed Home Harmonizes with Nature

25-059 Ua Nahele Street, Hilo HI 96720

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

The geometric symmetry of this impeccably designed home harmonizes with the natural surroundings. Located in upcountry Kaumana on a consolidated double lot, the sturdy and stable construction will stand the test of time.

Placed among native Ohia trees, undulating pahoehoe lava and lovely wild Orchids, you are surrounded by endemic Hawaiian flora. The contemporary style and clean mathematical lines allow the occupant to live the simple lifestyle away from the crush of material excess.

The home has two distinct living spaces. On the upper most level is the main living area consisting of a full kitchen, dining room, living room, office nook, master suite with full bathroom and closet as well as a half bath for guests. Floor to ceiling windows flood the rooms in morning light and reveal the sparkling bay and forest view. A Morso wood stove keeps you cozy on rainy nights. The kitchen features European cabinets, lava rock floors, lava rock slab countertops and stainless appliances. The bathrooms feature European vanities and mirrored cabinets, lava rock floors and Kohler sinks set in lava rock vanity tops. The master bedroom features a French door to the wrap around lanai and a walk-through wardrobe to the master bath with a Kohler Simbio soaking tub.

The Bungalow sits a few steps lower and consists of a studio bedroom, walk-in closet and full bathroom. This separate space is perfect for guests to Hawaii, your college kid or as an AirBnB nightly rental.

Both spaces of the home are surrounded by the wide, covered lanai to enjoy the outdoors from any angle. Sit on the back side of the home facing the Hilo Forest Reserve in the afternoons to soak up the mountain sun or enjoy the vast ocean views from the front lanai looking out to Hilo Bay and beyond.

The property is powered by the sun with an owned solar PV system AND net-metered with Helco for rainy days. Rain water catchment storage is hidden in the foundation of the carport.

Adjacent lot may be available.
